So the company started by fascists will now be serving fascists. Seems fitting.
As much as you would like to portray all Israelis as fascists and violent settlers, that’s not true. The Israeli defense people tend to be moderates.
Israel could not sustain its level of development with a majority of the population being fascists and crazy religious people. The monstrosity is the center right’s alliance with them, embodied by Netanyahu.
